LAMICTAL and cognition, mental clarity - JonW

I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience with Lamictal. Were you on any other medications when you were on Lamictal? Did those adverse reactions occur at all doses or just high doses? By the way, I have had speech problems on nearly ALL psychotropic medications EXCEPT FOR the stimulants. Even Ritalin adversely affects my speech in subtle ways. Dexedrine, however, actually improves my speech, articulation and fluency. Interestingly, in clinical studies, amphetamines have shown great promise in treating stroke patients who have stroke-induced speech impairment and stroke-induced motor impairment.
